By Roicland Evans and R oSerrFxb ua k '

Presidential Talent Scout

' • THE SURPRISE selection
of retired Adm. William F.
Raborn as head qf the Cen-
tral Intelligence Agency was
another sign of the quiet
•but pervasive power wield-
ed', in Washington today by
a 48-year-old career civil
servant named John Macy. '

Macy was buried in
bureaucratic obscurity as
Chairman of the Civil Serv-
ice' Commission until. Nov.
28. : Although he : s' kept that
job, Macy’s far more power-
ful role is working crut of
the • White House as Pre§-
ident Johnson’s, talent scout.

By recommending men
for high office and having
automatic access ,to press
•those recommendations on
the President, Macy has
seen his influence soar —
well above that exercised’ by
Ralph Dungan, talent scout ;
for President Kennedy (and
• now Ambassador to Chile). .

Moreover,’ Macy- has , alle-
viated the dangerous talent
shortage in Washington
. which we reported in Janu-
ary. Many of the top Admin- *
istration jobs now r have
been filled with Macy men.
What makes this particular-
ly -impressive is the high cal-'
iber. of. the appointments.;

ADM. RABORN’S selec-i
tion for the ultra-sensitive
post of CIA Director re-
flects the Johnson -Macy
teamwork as it has evolved
in the past four months. Ra-
born was not the choice of
any political or pressure
group. He was John Macy’s
choice.

Any number' of - famous
names had been bandied
about Washington as likely
chief at CIA replacing John
McCone. Inside the agency
itself there was strong sen-
timent for CIA’s , Richard-
Helms, a talented intel-
ligence veteran. But Helms
was rejected for fear - he
might not have the weighty,
prestige to deal with Con-
gress and' the military. ;.

if " ~ \

•- ■ ;k

' \ Novak Evan*

, ■ i

• ■ It was at this point that
Macy dispatched a secret/,
typically voluminous mem-

'/orandum to the President. ’
Its surprise recommenda-
? ation:: Raborn. Macy backed
up his choice with thesg
. four points: . v > *

1. Raborn has the trust of
" both.* 1 the military and the 1
‘.CIA.

-2. As the father of the*
Navy’s Polaris missile, Ra-
, born is expert in evaluation

■ of weaponry-^a major CIA

function. r .

j . .3. Raborn’s handling of
the brilliantly successful- Po-
. laris project was a model df
efficient weapons develop-
ment, displaying his- man-
agerial skill. . * /■ , i :

x 4. Although Congress
. frowns on military men run-
ning the CIA, the retired
Raborn is exceptionally pop-'
ular on Capitol Hill and has
the’ -prestige ’ to stand his
: ground with Congress. This
was perhaps the most tell - 1
ing of Macy’s four ; points.
Mr. Johnson; wants no part
of a congressional watchdog'*
^ committee .on the CIA.;,

* Therefore, 1 he needs, a CIA

, .chief that Congress trusts. .

, : The President bought Ma-
, cy’s recommendation in*
stantly, Raborn (who never
was approached by Macy)

/ was summoned to thb LBJ
Ranch and offered the job.

■ At CIA, Helms becomes No.
2, with a clear track to be-
jeome Raborn’s heir,...

BUT THE really fascinat-

-*>•

ing side; of. this selection
process isf the , fact that.*
Macy originally prepared’
his dossier on Raborn with-;
out any specific . job in
mind. Macy has a file cabi-
net full qf such dossiers and
full of. surprises. * . -

: For example* Republican :
politicians were pushing a;
half-dozen different possibil-’’

. ities ' for a Republican va-/.
cancy on the Federal Com- : -
munications Commission. 4
Nobody dreamed of James 7
.Wadsworth, an Eastern es-ff
tablishment Republican who'?
was President Eisenhower’s
disarmament negotiator. ' ^
.7 But Macy did. He reached"
into his file and out popped ’:
the Wadsworth credentials. -
'Armed with Macy’s memo /
; ' on Wadsworth, the President j
telephoned Wadsworth and*]
; within 24 hours the FCCj
* had a highly respected law- /
yer as a new member. :j
Let it be added that poli-. : i
' tics is still a vital ingredient'-!
in presidential appoin t-.?
ments. Macy clears hispros-’?
: pects with presidential lieu-- )
tenants Clifton Carter at s
; the Democratic National*

’ Committee and Lawrence F.
O’Brien at the. White House, ■]
. among Others/

But Mr. Johnson has
'changed his emphasis dur-
ing 16 months as President. .

. A year ago presidential inti- 1
ihates heard private com-
/ plaints about the lack ' of
.Texans and Southerners in;
/office. But ‘.now. the White
l House notes that most ap-?
’pointments come from out-
side, Mr. Johnson’s political
base (specifically ..from Cali-;
Jornia, the District of Co-'
lumbia, Connecticut, Mary-
land and New York).

. ! And in staff conferences,

’ the »■ President “ puts increas- *
ing emphasis on more Phi ^
| Beta Kappas in, top jobs. ■

: Given that mandate, John
Macy’s power is understand-
able. v ; : • .. . ; ' ’ \

The Washington Merry-Go-Ronhtl

Raborn Ties: a

THE WASHINGTON PQST Saturday , April 17 \ 196$

- " By D reiv Pear $6 h

-. Adrii. William. E. Raborn is
such a nice guy ’that the Sen-
ate, will doubtless confirm him
as . Chief of Central Intel-

ligence . with- ?
out. much'; de-J
bate. ’ /

;I happen to
like the Ad-1
miral .too.- As
a .newspaper-- 1

irian, however,

I must report
that since Ra-
born’s retire-
ment he has
been steeped Pearson
in exactly the atmosphere that
Dwight D. Eisenhower blasted
so vigorously in his last mes-
sage as President to the
American people, wherv. • on

Jan. 17, 1961> he warned of a
dangerous alliance between
the big military complex and
the big defense complex: . - -
,! The big defense complex
from which Adm. Raborn
came — Aerojet— General Tire
- — Polaris— went one step be-

yond Gen. Eisenhower’s warn-
ing ai\d also includes radio-

television and newspapers.

In addition, Rep. Edward
Hebert (D-La.) displosed in a
congressional probe of de-
fense lobbying that Aerojet
employed 66 .admirals,, gener-
als and other retired officers,
of whom 26 gave identical
evasive answers dictated by
Aerojet when asked whether
they had lobbied for defense
contracts. Rep. Hebert never
did get a real answer on this
point. , f . . ...

Raborn and Aerojet

Adm. Raborn was in
charge of the Polaris missile
program for th e ■ N avy : from
1955 to 1963 and immediately
upon retirement walked over
to the company that' had the
chief Polaris contract— Aero-
jet — to. become its' vice pres-
ident in charge of Polaris pro-
duction in. California. He was
riot, however, one of those
grilled by Rep. Hebert.

Relations between' the Navy
and Aerojet were so chummy
during part of Raborn’s re-
gime in the Navy ; that it has
been difficult for Congress-
men and Government account-
ants to fathom .-where \ the
Governmen t’s . business
stopped and Aerojet’s beg an;'*-

The House Armed Services
Committee discovered, for in-
stance, that; the Navy placed
$4.8 million in buildings on
Aerojet property from ! 1946- to
1952, and since the property
could not readily be removed,
it reverted to Aerojet - * .

“This is a heads-l-win, t-ails-
you-lose proposition,” com-
mented Rep. William Bray (R-
Ind.). > • . •/<•’ -

Adm. Raborn was- not. in
'charge of the Polaris program
at that time, but Dan, Kimball,
now president of Aerojet, was
then Assistant .Secretary and
Secretary of the. Navy.

Later, Adm. Raborn was in
charge of the Polaris program |
when the Defense Department!
permitted Aerojet to charge
iip the $205,000 cost of a
cafeteria . to the taxpayers,
even though Rep. Porter Har-

dy (D-Va.) showed that, the
cafeteria showed a profit of
$71,000.-. • . . V

Kraft

Running CIA

“THINGS have reached
1 the point where I’m even
beginning to wonder wheth-
er the Polaris can possibly
; b e a good
missile.”

Sar castic
remarks
along those
: lines are
■ heard almost
every day in
the national
i n t elligence
com munity.

The jibes
have nothing
to do with the missile which
is, of course, an excellent
one. Rather, they are in-
spired by the performance
of Admiral William Raborn,
(the former. head of the Po-
1 laris program, as Director
[ of the Central Intelligence
! Agency.

Like almost everything
. else about the CIA, the re- .
| marks about Admiral Ra-
born cannot be verified, and
verge on gossip. But the
gossip is sufficiently high-
level and widespread to
merit reporting. The more
so as even the Admiral's de-
fenders do not bother to
deny the charges. They
merely argue that the at-
tacks are beside the point
— that, in fact, the com-
plaints reflect a desirable
! condition that works to keep
j the influence of the CIA
! within safe bounds.

, THE BASIC complaint
about the Admiral is that
1 he has neither training nor
| flair for political analysis
1 of developments abroad. The
absence of grounding appar-
ently shows itself most dra-
matically in the highest
policy councils of the gov-
ernment.

In these meetings Admiral
Raborn is supposed to mis-
\ pronounce the names of for-
eign countries and personali-
ties consistently. His recom-
mendations are said to bear
little 'relationship to the

Insight and Outlook . .

facts he presents. On oc-
casion, apparently, he has
broached as if they were
fresh matters, subjects that
had been exhaustively dis-
cussed only five minutes
earlier. Sometimes, it seems,
his point of departure is the
exact opposite of a decision
just taken/

A lack of familiarity with
policy questions also finds
expression on the working
level within the CIA.
Thoughtful officials . com-
plain that in the final pre-
sentation their most care-
ful work is badly mangled:
Morale has apparently sunk
in the research and analysis
sections of the Agency, par-
ticularly among the group
preparing long-run e s t i-
mates. “They’d be . quitting,
if they had any place to go,”
one' official of another
agency asserts.

THE DEFENSE against
these charges depends on
discounting their impor-
tance. The starting point of
the argument is that with
such sophisticated veterans
of policy-making about as
Secretary of Defense Robert
McNamara, Secretary o f
State Dean Rusk and White
House aide McGeorge Bun-
dy, the President is hardly
dependent upon the special
insights and perception of
the Director of the CIA.

Furthermore, the case for
Admiral Raborn continues,
the great mass of activities
undertaken by the CIA are
rooted in technology. They
involve, in particular, new
developments in photog-
raphy and in sonics. Like
all other large government
agencies, the Agency is said
to have experienced diffi-
culty in digesting the new
technological developments
and in using them to best
advantage to meet the
changing demands for in-
formation.

Accordingly, the need of
the moment is to bring the

By Joseph Kraft

Agency abreast of its tech-
nological possibilities. That
is Admiral Raborn’s top
priority. And in that matter
he is said to be doing a good
job.

Besides, the argument
concludes, the important
thing for the welfare of the
country is to keep the CIA
— with its special vested in-
terest in prolonging the
cold war — from playing too
large a role in the policy-
making process. By having
a director more versed in
hardware than in policy, the
flow of information is main-
tained without the Agency
becoming a dominant influ-
ence in the basic decisions.

PERHAPS SO. But the
apologia bears the earmarks
of a rationalization after the
event. When the search for
a new director to succeed
John McCone was on last
winter and spring, no one
was looking for a man with
the ability to muffle the
voice of the Agency. On the
contrary, the Administra-
tion hit on Admiral Raborn
because it was looking for
a good manager with the
confidence of the Congress.

It is at that point precise-
ly that the shoe pinches.
Whatever the special re- -
quirements of the moment,
the case of Admiral Raborn
suggests that, in general,
running CIA demands some
experience in foreign af-
fairs, and a capacity for
sensitive analysis and so-
phisticated articulation. To
hunt for managers likely to
inspire the confidence of
Congress is to have a form-
ula far more apt to turn up
Babbits than men of nice
judgment and a feel for pen-
etrating analysis. The fact
is that the bluff and hearty
qualities so much esteemed
in both managerial and
Congressional circles are not
especially appropriate to the
guiding of a complex intelli-
gence effort.
